The Grand Hotel San Pietro is located in Taormina, n the east coast of Sicily. A panoramic terrace overlooking the Ionian Sea, so close you can hear u scrusciu du mari - the swish of the waves breaking on the peaceful coast of Isola Bella. On the horizon, Mount Etna. This is one of the views that greet guests at the Grand Hotel San Pietro, immersed in the scents and colours of lush Sicilian vegetation and a stone's throw from the centre of Taormina.
